Frustration results when a situation fails to produce an outcome that is line with the individual’s expectations. Frustration is believed to have the same emotional basis as fear, with the difference that in humans there is an ability to label the emotional experience differently according to the kinds of events that precede the emotional state. In other words, we are able to label frustration differently from fear only because we are able to rationalise the circumstances leading up to the frustration. Frustration is also able to evoke the same kinds of behavioural responses as fear, including escape and aggression.
